    I tried a baconator once 15+ years ago in the US. It was advertised as having 10 rashers of bacon on it! I had to know for myself. I obviously bought fries and their signature Frosty (thickshake) too to get the full experience.

    I learnt three things that day:

    1. Americans call the streaky bacon bit a rasher. So they’re about 3cm by 10cm, so not as hedonistic as imagined.
    2. a manufactured food that is 1/3 fat has a surprising amount of structural integrity.
    3. people dip their fries in their thickshakes.

    I only ate salad for days afterwards. We really don’t need Wendy’s or even just another shit-tier burger place like them.
